I’m trying to spec a new ur5e install . 2 robot arms. do I design for max or nominal consumption.
I usually spec for nominal consumption with some overhead. It depends on how you intend to run the robots, though.
And most circuits can handle a good amount of peak current.
Yeah nominal is a lot lower than expected. 1 20 amp circuit should suffice for 2 robots.
Why not just install it with a 6A/10A circuit? The control box is internally fused, as well.
I thought you were checking max power of the whole machine or something. 
2 ur 5 ‘s per station times 4 stations so 8 robots that’s why
